Ukraine has launched a major counterattack against energy supplies in Russia and in occupied territory, according to Russian authorities.

According to authorities and eyewitness accounts on social media, missiles hit the Russian city of Belgorod overnight. They reportedly struck a thermal power plant, and reports indicate that a major fire broke out.

The governor of the Belgorod region described it on social media as a “massive robot attack,” saying heating and water supplies have been knocked out.
